Product description

Product description
The name Kilkerran comes from Gaelic and is derived from 'Ceann Loch Cilli Chiarain'. This was the name of the first settlement on the site where the town of Campbeltown now stands. The malt is produced at Mitchell's Glengyle distillery. The distillery was closed for over 80 long years, but was refurbished and reopened by Springbank. The first distillate flowed on 25 March 2004. The 12-year-old was created from 70% Bourbon and 30% Sherry casks.

Aroma: Sweet Fruit Malt Peat Smoke

Geschmack: Sweet Honey Caramel Peat Smoke Fruit Oak Herbs

Abgang: Malt Peat Smoke Sweet Fruit Maritime Notes

Kommentar: Erst Süss, dann fast schon ausgewogen, Rauch gar nicht so präsent zunächst. Dann kommt der typische Campbeltown Charakter aber immer begleitet von einer harmonischen Süsse. Für mich ein sehr guter 12 Jahre alter Whisky
